Hi all,

This is my first post on kayak fishing so "bare" with me. I went all in on a tandem island with livewell and ff for my son and me.

I am loving it and can't get enough. I have been struggling with my pole placement on the yak and in life, but let's focus on the yak here. I don't have a lot of time to design and build custom stuff (ironically i am too busy engineering for my day job).

Currently I am using the Railblaza mounts on the AKA with a 5 inch extension but I am always struggling to get the pole out (of the rod holder). I am considering a direct mount to the hull near my seats but wanted to get some opinions and other solutions you folks have found before I start drilling into my hull.
